1969 442 Carburetor Numbers

I have a 69 442 Fremont build date 01A. The car is an auto trans but has the 4-speed card ending 253 on it. I have a 7029251 RJ 0029 carb. Is the 0029 the 2nd day of 1969? Is it plausible that this carb could have been installed on my car at the factory? I'm asking for judging purposes, i have heard the build date is also on the throttle body and not the bowl but this changed mid-year? Thanks!

0029 should be the 2nd day of January, 1969. Build date of car being 1st week of January, could be for the car.

Thanks Craig,
Now if I can get it rebuilt, going to need a helicoil for sure. Inlet is corroded.
